"What did the madam say?" Ji Xiaotang was very surprised, "Did the madam see it?"
Madam Cheng said that she was not completely sure, after all, she was just a short-term vision. Moreover, even if Gu Xia'er's appearance was pregnant, her life was very shallow, so it was extremely difficult to judge.
But there is one thing that Madam Cheng is sure that Gu Xia'er is no longer a daughter.
Although Madam Cheng no longer taught Ji Xiaoyun and Ji Xiaotang the rules, she taught them more other things. Ji Xiaoyun was thirteen years old and Ji Xiaotang was eleven years old. Madam Cheng might be a little shy in front of Ji Xiaoyun, but it was different in front of Ji Xiaotang.
If it weren't for Ji Xiaotang, Madam Cheng would probably not have said it. Even if she had to say it, she would have only told Mrs. Ji Er.
Ji Xiaotang is premature and has a much more mature mind than girls of the same age.
Ji Xiaotang was silent for a while.
If Gu Xia'er is pregnant, many things will change.
"I'll make some arrangements and take a closer look at it." Ji Xiaotang thought about it and said to Madam Cheng.
Madam Cheng nodded naturally.
Ji Xiaotang did what he said and soon arranged for Madam Cheng to meet Gu Xiaer again. This time, Madam Cheng had enough time to observe Gu Xiaer more carefully and comprehensively.
After killing Gu Xia'er, Ji Xiaotang hurriedly called Madam Cheng to come in front of him to ask.
"From the appearance alone, I am 50% sure." Madam Cheng told Ji Xiaotang. "I just asked the little girl who followed her to serve her. According to the days when she changed her clothes, I was 20% more sure."
70% sure!
Ji Xiaotang knew that Madam Cheng had always been cautious, and because of Gu Xiaer's frequent disobedience recently, Ji Xiaotang was almost certain that Gu Xiaer was really pregnant.
But with Jiang Xinglong's body, this is simply impossible.
The impossible thing happened, so there was only one explanation.
Who would that man be?
Although the Jiang family is not a serious and wealthy family, the inner house does not come in and out at will. The most suspicious one is only two people.
Which of these two people is more likely to be?
Ji Xiaotang walked slowly in the room for a while and had plans in her heart. She beat Madam Cheng away and sat on the couch under the south window. While taking out a scroll of Diamond Sutra and slowly started reading.
In the evening, Master Ji San came to find Ji Xiaotang.
Gu Lei'er has only been at home these days and has never even stepped out of the gate. Jiang Qingshan almost never left behind. Master Ji San couldn't find any gaps and felt very depressed.
"Uncle, the plan has changed.⊥," Ji Xiaotang put down the scriptures in his hand and said to Master Ji San.
"What?" Master Ji San was puzzled.
Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San came to find Master Ji Er. The three of them discussed in the library for a while. When they walked out of the library, it was already time to hold the lights.
Everyone used the supper in Mrs. Ji's house.
Old Mrs. Ji was originally heart disease, and once the heart disease disappeared, her health would be very good.
After the meal, everyone talked about Mr. Ji San's intention to go to the Fucheng to participate in the provincial examination.
Master Ji Er originally planned to take Mrs. Ji Er and Changsheng to send Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San to the Mansion City together, but because of the matter discussed just now, Master Ji Er had to cancel this itinerary, and only Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San to the Mansion City were still the only ones to go to the Mansion City.
Although Mrs. Ji Er wanted to see her parents very much, she didn't say anything about the big things about her family. She could always go to her parents' home in the future, but she had to wait a few more days. Mrs. Ji Er had been waiting for so many years and would not care about it in these few months.
In front of Mrs. Ji, Master Ji Er would naturally not say this. He only said that he and Mrs. Ji Er would stay at home and wait for good news from Master Ji San.
When Mrs. Ji heard this, she couldn't help but show her joy.
"It's good that way, Changsheng is still young. I'm afraid that he can't stand this long journey." Old Mrs. Ji said.
Mrs. Ji'er, as a mother, just reflect on herself. She was really too impatient and didn't care too much because of Mrs. Ji's words.
The Ji family was preparing luggage for Master Ji San and Ji Xiaotang, but the Xie family had already cleaned up. Xie Huaijin followed County Magistrate Xie and Mrs. Xie to the Ji family to say goodbye the day before departure.
Xie Huaijin finally found an opportunity to say a few words to Ji Xiaotang alone.
"Xiaotang, the weather is getting colder. When you go to the city, be careful of everything." Xie Huaijin told Ji Xiaotang.
"You should be careful." Ji Xiaotang smiled, "How far is it? When I arrive at the capital, I can live in my grandfather's house."
Ji Xiaotang asked Xie Huaijin in detail about the itinerary along the way and where he would stay after he arrived.
Xie Huaijin answered them one by one. It was just a normal conversation, but the two cherished each word and sentence very much.
As for the provincial examination, Ji Xiaotang only instructed Xie Huaijin to do his best and not be too obsessed with the results.
"A twelve-year-old juren, how many people in the world are there?" Ji Xiaotang looked at Xie Huaijin with a smile. She said this to help Xie Huaijin in advance. When she didn't want to fail the exam, Xie Huaijin was too disappointed.
Xie Huaijin also smiled and didn't say anything.
Of course he knew that it was rare for a young juren. It was because of the rare that he wanted to try his best to fight for it. He was with Ji Xiaotang since he was a child, and he knew how smart Ji Xiaotang was better than others. He just wanted to be more suitable for Ji Xiaotang and give Ji Xiaotang all the best things possible.
"Xiaotang, you are waiting for me." Xie Huaijin smiled for a while before saying.∮,
When he came back, he invited his parents to come to the Ji family to propose marriage.
"Yes." Ji Xiaotang nodded.
When it was time to say goodbye, Xie Huaijin was reluctant to leave.
"Xiaotang, is there something wrong in your family?" Xie Huaijin suddenly remembered something and asked Ji Xiaotang.
Peony assassinated the Changsheng, the Ji family and the Gu family turned against each other, and Old Mrs. Ji got sick because of this. Although these things were hidden tightly, there was still a vague news in Qingyuan County.
"Brother Huaijin, you heard that something happened to my family?" Ji Xiaotang asked without answering.
"... The old lady is sick because her uncle wants to kill the immortality." Xie Huaijin hesitated for a moment, but said to Ji Xiaotang.
If it weren't for the childhood sweethearts of the two, Xie Huaijin would never have said this.
It turns out that this is the legend outside. I wonder if someone is adding fuel to the fire.
"Someone wants to assassinate the Changsheng. The uncle and the family are the most suspicious, but the old lady protects them and can only leave it alone." Ji Xiaotang said to Xie Huaijin.
"Damn it!" Xie Huaijin said, his anger was revealed, and it was obviously a dissatisfaction for Ji Xiaotang.
Xie Huaijin is gentle and rarely angry.
"It's very hateful." Ji Xiaotang nodded.
Xie Huaijin hurriedly looked Ji Xiaotang carefully again. He found that Ji Xiaotang's face was still good and he was not thin, so he felt a little relieved.
"My father said this was a house and I didn't ask me to ask you. But I couldn't help it. Xiaotang, I'll worry for you."
"Are you still worried that someone would harm me?" Ji Xiaotang said deliberately and relaxedly.
"I'm just worried." Xie Huaijin admitted immediately, "In addition, I, I feel sorry for you too. Xiaotang, you must have been worried a lot these days. My mother said, "You have helped my aunt with most of the housework now."
Ji Xiaotang didn't know what to say when Xie Huaijin showed such true feelings.
"A family has a big business, a lot of people and a lot of things, and each family is similar. There is no saying that every family has a difficult sutra to recite." Ji Xiaotang was silent for a while before saying again.
"Xiaotang, my family is different." Xie Huaijin immediately said, "My father has no brothers, and my mother has only given birth to me. From now on, we will only live a family together and will not worry you."
"Brother Huaijin, you are not shy!" Ji Xiaotang said.
Xie Huaijin realized his speech and immediately blushed.
However, at this moment, only him and Ji Xiaotang were the only ones. Although he blushed, he was not very embarrassed, and there was a smile on his face. Xie Huaijin was a little stupid when he smiled at this moment.
Even if there is more to say, the time for separation is still here.
"I can't go to see you tomorrow..." Ji Xiaotang said to Xie Huaijin.
"You want to go and see me, but I don't want to." Xie Huaijin said, "I have to set off tomorrow before dawn."
"Brother Huaijin, take care of yourself all the way and come back early."
"I will."
...
After seeing Xie Huaijin off, it was soon the day for Ji Xiaotang and Master Ji San to set off.
Before leaving, Ji Xiaotang instructed Master Ji Er.
"Dad, my uncle and I are not here. Daddy just arrange it according to our plan, but don't do anything else. Everything will be waited for my uncle and I to come back, and we will close the network when the time comes."
Mr. Ji Er stayed at home mainly to protect the whole family and not give people the opportunity to take advantage of it.
Master Ji Er nodded.
"Don't worry, dad knows it's amazing. You and your uncle must be careful in everything." Master Ji Er told Ji Xiaotang.
"Dad just wait for the good news from my uncle!" Ji Xiaotang told Master Ji Er.
"Okay!" Master Ji Er smiled.
...
Ji Xiaotang took a car out of Qingyuan County and got on the official road to Ren'an City. Ji Xiaotang abandoned the carriage, rode the white rabbit, walked with Master Ji San, and spoke while walking.
The White Rabbit is the name of the white horse that Qi Younian gave to Ji Xiaotang.
